I think watching youtube videos together on the black plague, polio, measles, or 1918 flu epidemic would be a good place to start while having a rational discussion throughout watching.

I think its also important to educate/comprimise with them, assuming they are young healthy adults, agree that covid likely isnt really a short term risk to their well beings, but that they are indirectly very real threat vectors to those that are immunocomprised like our neighbors who have diabetes, or grandparents, etc.

If you can get them to admit that they dont want to get vaccinated because they dont want a needle in their arm and drive an hour driving to the hospital and are young and healthy, aka laziness, i think that can help lead to the selfrealization that not getting vaccinated is a selfish, neurotic move, in the middle of a pandemic when lots of already comprimised or older people are dying.
While what you're saying is true for all situations, the of the github flow is that to a developer relying on master, problematic code never made it in.

Agreed that any codes can be added/removed but those are 100% valid changes in github flow.

I love the project too, but even if we’re at peak oil (demand) there are still dozens of unexplored or barely touched shale basins around the world. Peak gas is a long way off. And oil & gas infrastructure doesn’t just “rot away” in a year or two due to a pandemic, or it would have already rotted due to the periodic busts that crash the rig count just as much.

It’s interesting how people’s reasons for the impending doom differ with their political leaning. Left leaning people will say we’re running out of resources and soon to be inundated with melted ice caps because we’re too individualistic. Right leaning people say we’re going to turn into Idiocracy because of poor breeding and easy living because there’s too much welfare and immigration.

I’m not sure i agree with a lot of these complaints. Of course potential terrorist groups will abuse any service they can, but I don’t see that as a reason to create said service. If anything refusing to will just allow them to be outcompeted as someone else steps in to fill that niche and disrupting them.

Same for the crypto concerns. Criminals and bad actors are going to use crypto to exchange money regardless so what’s the point in not adding it to your platform?

I was expecting the abuse to be from state agencies, not an encryption company literally spewing the same anti-encryption rhetoric we’ve heard for years.
> I would have expected the PR to be merged first before it gets served to the public, so even if you have to `git revert` and undeploy it, you still have a record of every version that was seen by actual users, even momentarily.

This sounds rather terrifying to me as well. Hopefully there's some sort of system for keeping around all those individual branches that made it out to prod, however briefly, for future debugging/auditing purposes if you ever need them.

It's never fun to have to be doing "what code was running at this time" investigations, but every once in a while it's the only way to really get to the root of something.

I also have an immediate family member who is a nurse, and unfortunately our anecdotal, second hand experience, seems disagree. Yes, that's not how statistics work, they are not all 82. Let's also remember that we live in an imperfect world and many, many more of younger age die every day. We are living in a dilution where we forget that everybody dies. A 10% increase is not a 10x increase. We can handle this without the security theater.

I find Zoom calls and even voice calls on cell phones fatiguing and frustrating. My hypothesis is that it's the latency. We humans are very sensitive to the cadence of a conversation. We wait for lulls to know when to speak.

Calls over the Internet add enough latency that it really fucks up that natural process. So I find I end up being hypervigilent to try to guess ahead when the speaker is about to pause so that if I start talking now it will flow naturally. Otherwise, if I wait for them to pause, they won't hear me start for a while and will end up resuming.

So it's just super draining trying to anticipate the conversational flow and make it go smoothly. I hate it.

This could be useful even outside of the global collapse that the creator fears. Imagine a sanctioned country or separatist region that was both completely cut off from the internet and also had all of their computers remotely bricked by remote management engine, malware, or EMP. Maybe the chips in their weapons and radios are shielded and working for now, but how would they bootstrap a new development environment?

There's some meta-analysis, perspective, that I think Cory Doctorow captured very well on this topic, broadly, recently. "Descartes' God has failed and Thompson's Satan rules our computers"[1] is the true fact of the day, describes the hell-hole shit-crap reality we have been forced into via extremely aggressive IP rules & enforcement. Corporatism pushing ever-diminishing legal & ethos-based respect for humanity keeps making victory after victory, against humankind's ability not (just) to repair, but to understand, to be in contact with, to learn about the world about them. Corporate machinehood has permission to dictate that the user know nothing, learn nothing, understand nothing, be merely reduced to an end-user. This is poison, at the deepest level an abject violation of the spirit & virtue of the fundamental birthright of man- the tool maker- to learn & develop & improve their environment. The new equation of computing turns us into animals, mere users of what is. It is vile. A right to repair is such a basic, fundamental expression, of our right to continue, to avoid loss, but the real battle is so much larger, so much about whether corporations are allowed to control & own understanding, or whether mankind is permitted an ongoing say & understanding of the artifacts that fill our world. Man became great upon a backbone of natural science, but science of the artificial is prevented by law.

Props to Cory, for, as usual, calibrating us & driving us towards some very common very basic sense.

This sure was the case before, and I'm likely in my own bubble when I say this. I think many spam filters are nowadays very good. SPF+DKIM+DMARC setup makes a huge difference. I have a small server that occasionally sends emails, and I never had a problem with emails ending up in spam.

The IP reputation matters a lot, followed by the content itself. I don't think email recipient servers downright mark all lesser known senders as spam.

This, like most intersections of law and software, is tricky.

Let's say you, zakki, release v1 of a program as the sole author. The code is yours, and you release it under 2-BSD. v1 will remain under 2-BSD forever; however, you are free to:

* sell the same code under a different license (including a closed-source commercial license)

* change the license of v2 to a completely different license – in this case, v1 will remain under 2-BSD in perpetuity but future releases are not.

This would be true for 2-BSD, GPL, whatever license you like.

---

This gets interesting when you are not the sole author. In that case, you either:

+ were fastidious about requiring your contributors to assign copyright to you, in which case the above holds

- accepted all comers, in which case you have to go on a crusade to chase down those people to assign copyright OR to agree to your license change – Mozilla did this (painful) exercise in its past[1].

---

Now, if you were not the sole author but you actually reused or forked code, like OpnSense (based on FreeBSD), your options are different. In that case, the underlying license cannot just "go away": FreeBSD's license carries through. However, as it is a very permissive 2-BSD, there's nothing to say OpnSense couldn't relicense to a proprietary license per the above.

---

Hypothetically, if OpnSense were based on Linux instead, the underlying GPLv2 would be attached. In that case, you could not relicense to a closed-source model because

> You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.

(emphasis mine).

Clear as mud? :)

> However, "free therapy" is a wildly unpopular suggestion in the USA.

This is strange. I'd guess that free therapy, or at least government-subsidized mental health initiatives, would be pretty popular on the left. That leaves me with the right. But therapy doesn't really seem like something that's easy to get jealous about. Are people going to get mad at articles about "therapy queens" that see a dozen therapists per week?

> Look back 50 years, not 100 years.

This observation is often trotted out, but I'm not sure it's fair. 50 years ago was no picnic, either. We were mired in the Cold War (Vietnam, no less). Nixon was in the White House. There was tons of social unrest (Nixon wrote in his memoirs about the thousands of bomb threats and attempted bombings). Civil rights / racial tensions were extremely high (MLK was assassinated in '68). The 70's were an absolutely terrible economic decade - oil shock and stagflation, anyone?

> huge increase in labor supply: outsourcing, women entering workforce in large numbers

I recall watching a presentation a few years back on this, but sadly I can't find the link. This appears to be a follow-up on the research, though. (From the Brookings Institute -https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https:/...

In 1970, women entered the workforce, so you would have expected productivity to double, so GDP would have doubled, and thusly everyone's standard of living, right?

Instead what happened is all that extra capital drove up costs in housing and healthcare. Credit cards were introduced and the savings rate plummetted. Instead of having tons of extra money, everyone actually wound up in debt instead. (Please note: I'm not blaming women entering the workforce for this phenomenon; it was totally our surrounding economic system)

My high level point is that I think young people back then had a lot of reason to feel precarious and not trust in their institutions to act in their interests. We probably suffered a lot for it then, but we did eventually build our way out of it, for at least a short while, even if it feels like we're essentially further down the economic path now.

The United Nations North Delegates’ Lounge (2014)
Wikipedia needs authoritative sources to dispute or challenge it. It isn’t primary research.
IANAL, but that complaint reads weirdly. Most often these things are deadly dull and the facts are slowly laid out with evidence in the footnotes but that filing doesn’t play to type. I make no claim if that is right or wrong, just oddly spicy.
Could it have been the other way around, where the rise of finance industries caused the "greed is good" 80s?

I've assume that Nixon taking the U.S. off the gold standard precipitated the growth in the finance industry, the government needs banks to grow money supply and debt, right?

"Greed is good" may have just been an add campaign designed to justify what was already happening, a frenzy of finance, consumerism, and debt that has not stopped yet.

I side with the parent here, if you don't care about portability why even bother with the autotools? And if you bother to use the autotools, what would you get by purposefully breaking compatibility?

I'm still to this day paid to write embedded code for various DSPs, I'm very happy that autotools are portable. I know that on HN if you're not writing NodeJS or Rust in x86-64 docker containers you're niche and don't count, but it's a bit short sighted.

Autotools doesn't need disrupting.

I even think that the mail in TFA is somewhat mislead. Autotools drop in popularity because the type of software development that requires using the autotools is slowly but surely declining, or maybe it's not even declining but simply growing at a fraction of other ecosystems. Actually many modern languages and environments (IMO rightfully) ship their own well-integrated build systems, so attempting to bring the autotools there is probably a waste of time.

For me asking about "future plans for Autotools" is like asking for "future plans for Make" or "future plans for ls". I don't expect any substantial changes in these projects, but I also don't think they're obsolete. They just fit a specific use case and they do it (mostly) well.

This is essentially correct. Trying to be all things to all people massively increased development costs for diminishing returns, and not infrequently forces significant architectural tradeoffs too.

The new databases tend to be narrower, hyper-optimized data model and workload specialists. It requires a small fraction of the code and you know exactly who your target market is. I much prefer this model from an engineering perspective.

It is also what drives the interest in database meta-programming scaffolds that can codegen narrowly optimized database engines from something that approximates a specification. It greatly reduces cost/time to market in this new environment.

I'm not sure how you would open source a codegen implementation. I don't use any open source inside high-performance implementations myself for good reason, though I occasionally do PostgreSQL mods for companies for fun. Customers care less about open source on the very high-end because vanishingly few people could credibly maintain it in any case.

You're referring to Hitchens's Razor, which I believe is a flawed mindset that's used selectively as it suits people. The situation here is that the proof is very well hidden, and therefore the situation has been rendered un-falsifiable. This is now essentially a Russell's Teapot[1] statement.

I'd say when people start storming the US Capitol, it's time to stop ignoring the underlying issue. Why are you so afraid of confirming the facts via evidence? I think the clear answer is that you're afraid it might not be what you want to hear.
